Wandering Warriors
Sacrifice never seeking his own salvation
Seeking the grace of divine protection
Gaining more than losing one's self
Dying each day to live another life
Living a life, fraught with decay
Degenerate death is all you think he may
A rope to hang one's soul
Killing again only to die another day
Wondrous Warrior, dying in his own deceit
Wonder-Loving Warrior, grounded only by his own two feet
Never leaving, without saying
If I could have only died another, still far-off day
Now yet again, I've got nothing left to say
Fire and storms, lightning swarms
Stinging fears, life without tears
Wandering Warriors, what have you seen?
Death without life and back round again
Heaven knows the solace you seek
A place among trees, the quiet you keep
On desert hill and mountain dune
Our Love we send, Our Prayers for you to keep.

Marching through fear,
sadness,
and loss,

A soldier mourns his fallen comrade
by placing a poppy on his grave,
he stands back and
THEIR SLEEP'S A STORM
Sleeping in a muddy trench.
Our heroes breathing filthy stench.
Or resting in a bed of sand.

Letter From A Soldier
